n-Octyl (Thio)glycosides as Potential Cryoprotectants: Glass Transition Behaviour, Membrane Permeability, and Ice Recrystallization Inhibition Studies*
Bibliographic record
Abstract
A series of eight n-octyl (thio)glycosides (1a, ß–4a, ß) with d-glucose or d-galactose-configured head groups and varying anomeric configuration were synthesized and evaluated for glass transition behaviour, membrane permeability, and ice recrystallization inhibition (IRI) activity. Of these, n-octyl ß-d-glucopyranoside (2ß) exhibited a high glass transition temperatures (Tg), both as a neat sample and 20 wt-% aqueous solution. Membrane permeability studies of this compound revealed cellular uptake to concentrations relevant to the inhibition of intracellular ice formation, thus presenting a promising lead candidate for further biophysical and cryopreservation studies. Compounds were also evaluated as ice recrystallization inhibitors; however, no detectable activity was observed for the newly tested compounds.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
